  • Slctccstcvsljtvc Antr
    Slctccstcvsljtvc antr 10th January, 1855. A MEETING was held in the Town Library, Guild Hall, Leicester, for the purpose of establishing this society. The Venerable the Archdeacon of Leicester was in the chair. He requested Mr. Ingram (the honorary secretary, pro tempore) to read the letters received from various persons who had signified their desire to become members.—The first was from the Bishop of the Diocese, who also expressed his willingness to promote the objects of the society. The second was from Earl Howe, regretting his inability to attend. In a previous letter his lordship stated " I shall be very happy to be enrolled a member, and I assure you I take a decided interest in your proceedings/' Letters from the Rev. G. E. Gillett (mentioning that the Duke of Rutland would accept the office of Patron); from Sir F. G. Fowke (excus­ ing his non-attendance on the ground of ill health, which con­ fined him to his room); and from Mr. Geoffrey Palmer (apolo­ gizing for his inability to be present)—were also laid before the meeting. This part of the business being concluded, the venerable Chairman called on Mr. W. Perry-Herrick, who rose to move the first resolution. He expressed his gratification at being able to take part in the formation of a society which he felt certain would be attended with many beneficial effects, in conducing to the study of eccle­ siastical architecture and general antiquities in the county. He stated his regret that he was so little acquainted with either Archaeology or Architecture ; but that he knew sufficient to enable him to appreciate the value of the labours of those who had leisure to devote themselves more particularly to these interesting pur­ suits, and he hoped, by associating with them at the meetings of the society, he might improve his knowledge, and receive much information and instruction.

  • The Arms of the Baronial and Police Burghs of Scotland
    THE ARMS OF THE BARONIAL AND POLICE BURGHS OF SCOTLAND BY JOHN MARQUESS OF BUTE, K.T. H. J. STEVENSON AND H. W. LONSDALE EDINBURGH WILLIAM BLACKWOOD & SONS 1903 UNIFORM WITH THIS VOLUME. THE ARMS OF THE ROYAL AND PARLIAMENTARY BURGHS OF SCOTLAND. BY JOHN, MARQUESS OF BUTE, K.T., J. R. N. MACPHAIL, AND H. W. LONSDALE. With 131 Engravings on Wood and 11 other Illustrations. Crown 4to, 2 Guineas net. ABERCHIRDER. Argent, a cross patee gules. The burgh seal leaves no doubt of the tinctures — the field being plain, and the cross scored to indicate gules. One of the points of difference between the bearings of the Royal and Parliamentary Burghs on the one hand and those of the I Police Burghs on the other lies in the fact that the former carry castles and ships to an extent which becomes almost monotonous, while among the latter these bearings are rare. On the other hand, the Police Burghs very frequently assume a charge of which A 079 2 Aberchirder. examples, in the blazonry of the Royal and Parliamentary Burghs, are very rare : this is the cross, derived apparently from the fact that their market-crosses are the most prominent of their ancient monuments. In cases where the cross calvary does not appear, a cross of some other kind is often found, as in the present instance. We are informed that in assuming this device no special allusion was intended by the authorities of Aberchirder ; we should therefore conjecture that the charge was obtained by some course of syllogistic reasoning such as — burghs have crosses : this is a burgh ; therefore it ought to have a cross.

  • Ing Items Have Been Registered
    ACCEPTANCES Page 1 of 26 March 2004 LoAR THE FOLLOWING ITEMS HAVE BEEN REGISTERED: ÆTHELMEARC Adriana vander Brugghe. Name change from Fiona Harpar and badge. (Fieldless) A furison sable. Submitted as Odriana vander Brugghe, the submitter requested authenticity for Flanders and allowed minor changes. Odriana was documented from Walraven van Nijmegen’s article "Dutch Womens’ Names before 1100" (http://www.geocities.com/Athens/1336/name1100vr.html). The byname vander Brugghe is dated to 1465 in Loveday Toddekyn’s article "Flemish Names from Bruges" (http://www.s-gabriel.org/docs/bruges/). As submitted, the elements of this name had a weirdness for a temporal disparity of greater than 300 years. In that amount of time, most languages in our period evolved and changed to some degree. Therefore, a name authentic for pre-1100 would likely have at least minor changes to spelling of the byname. A name authentic for 1465 would likely have at least minor changes to the given name. In this case, the College found information regarding authentic forms of this given name appropriate for late period. The submitted given name Odriana was only found in Walraven’s article (dated to pre-1100). The form Adriana is found dated to 1391-1428 in Guntram von Wolkenstein’s article "Vlaamse Vrouwennamen" ’Dutch Women’s Names’ (http://www.s-gabriel.org/names/guntram/vlaamse.htm). Adriana is also found dated to 1589 in Loveday’s article cited above. As the form Odriana seems to have fallen out of use by the 15th C (the date for the submitted byname), we have changed the given name to the form Adriana in order to make this name temporally consistent for a single time period in Flanders in order to meet the submitter’s request for authenticity.

  • Concerning the Evolution of Some Reverse Types of the Anglo-Norman Coinage
    CONCERNING THE EVOLUTION OF SOME REVERSE TYPES OF THE ANGLO-NORMAN COINAGE. BY WILLIAM SHARP OGDEN. HE object of this paper is to draw attention to the patterns or devices displayed on the reverse faces of a number of the early post-Conquest pennies, and, by remarking their distinctive features, to show how in some instances designs apparently quite distinct from each other are merely variants traceable to a remote but evident prototype. Again, others will be shown to have arisen from the adoption and multiplication of religious symbols or emblems, grouped around or attached to a special central figure. Some of these display considerable ingenuity and variety of fancy in the elaboration of designs constructed from purely symbolic detail. These symbols, although limited in number, are in their own proper forms treated with great elasticity and boldness. Location of mint, lapse of time, and local method of expression are, however, all factors in producing really surprising varieties of an originally simple form ; so that it. is easy to see that when these multiple divergencies are used as decorative and intentionally symbolic detail, we may expect an artistic, if somewhat intricate, result; and certainly nowhere in the wide field of Numismatics can there be found such infinite license and variety of pattern, produced by simple forms enriching a dominant central figure, at once the most conservative and austere. It is worthy of note that in the infancy of Numismatic art, when it first adventured on its most interesting career, the little ungainly clumps of metal were impressed on one side only with the seal or badge of the sovereign, as the sole charge ; thus the newly invented coin 58 Concerning the Evolution of some Reverse possessed an obverse but no reverse, unless the rude punch mark of the standard die may be considered as such.

  • The Heraldry of Queens' College Cambridge
    The Heraldry of Queens’ College, Cambridge By David Broomfield BA (Hons) Introduction The representations of the coat of arms of Queens’ College are many and varied. On the face of it they should be easy to agree. They were granted in 1575 by Robert Cooke, Clarenceux King of Arms, during his heraldic Visitation to Cambridge. According to Cooke Queen Margaret granted “unto the saide President and fellowes and their successors her armes to be used in the saide colledge as they stand depicted in this margent.” He added to Margaret’s paternal arms a border of green to differentiate those of the College from those of her family. However, the painting of the arms in the grant is in error and many of these mistakes find their way into the arms as shown in the College. The main problem in agreeing a definitive version of the College’s arms is that of reconciling different heraldic traditions. In England it is a principle that the “metals”, gold and silver, take precedence over the “colours”, blue, black, red, green and purple. This is best illustrated in the arms of Grey where the silver bar appears at the top of the shield and is then followed by blue and so forth. This is at variance with some Continental practice, for example the arms of Hungary have at the top a red band followed by silver. Also in most English arms six “bars” usually suffice but for Hungary the four silver bars are said to represent the four main rivers of Hungary. The curious agglomeration of quarterings in Margaret’s arms can be traced back to the first House of Anjou.

  • The Paintings on the Choir Ceiling of St Albans Abbey Church
    II. THE PAINTINGS ON THE CHOIR CEILING OF S. Albans Abbey Church. A PAPER READ BEFORE THE S. ALBANS ARCHITECTURAL AND ARCHAEOLOGICAL SOCIETY, FEBRUARY 22nd, 1876, BY RIDGWAY LLOYD, M.R.C.S., One of the Honorary Secretaries of the S.

ALBANS: RANDALL, HIGH STREET. 1876. [ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.] C. F. KELL, PRINTER, CASTLE STEEET, HOLBORN, LONDON. THE PAINTINGS ON THE CHOIR CEILING OF S. ALBANS ABBEY CHURCH. IT is my intention this evening to bring before you a brief account of the Paintings upon the Ceiling of the Choir of S. Albans Abbey Church, which, as many of you are aware, were disclosed to view during the past summer, by the removal, under Mr. Chappie's personal superintendence, of the later series of Paintings which had hidden the earlier ones from view. Reckoning from the western arch of the tower, westward, as far as the rood-screen, there are 66 panels, arranged in 11 transverse rows of six panels each. In every row we find three panels, each charged with a shield supported by an angel, alternating with a like number bearing the sacred monogram (the first two and the last letters of the Greek form of the word Jesus), drawn in four different ways, and surrounded by a scroll. The only exceptions to this rule are to be found in the two central panels of the middle or sixth row, which contain representations of our Lord and S.

  • ÆTHELMEARC Andreas Jäger Von Holstein
    ACCEPTANCES Page 1 of 20 September 2007 LoAR THE FOLLOWING ITEMS HAVE BEEN REGISTERED: ÆTHELMEARC Andreas Jäger von Holstein. Name and device. Argent, a bear sejant erect sable and on a chief enarched rayonny gules a lightning bolt argent. Elyenora Houll. Device. Argent, three leaves bendwise sinister vert between two scarpes sable between six dragonflies purpure. This was originally pended on the February 2007 LoAR. Marija Kotok. Name change from Mariia Kotova. Precedent set in October 2002 forbade the registration of unmarked patronymics in Russian names: Bola is a Russian masculine given name. Lacking evidence that Russian used unmarked patronymic bynames, we have changed this to the patronymic form Bolin in order to register this name. [Gorm Bolin, 10/2002, A-Middle] This appeal raised the issue of whether there is evidence for unmarked patronymic bynames in Russian. The submitter and commenters provided examples that could be interpreted as unmarked patronymics in Russian names. Furthermore, they found statements from authorities on Russian names supporting unmarked patronymics as a rare practice in Russian names. The evidence presented is sufficient to allow unmarked patronymics in Russian names as a rare, but registerable practice. Therefore, this name is registerable. For more details on the information provided for this practice, see this month’s Cover Letter. This was originally pended on the February 2007 LoAR. Her old name, Mariia Kotova, is released. Petr Kotok. Name change from Petr Kotov. His old name, Petr Kotov, is released. This name is a Russian name using an unmarked patronymic. For more information on the registerability of this practice, see this month’s Cover Letter.

  • Design Your Personal Coat of Arms: Rubric Elements
    Design your personal coat of arms: Select a shape for your shield. You will put your "motto for life" at the bottom or the top of the shield. Here are some examples, but you will find more on page 3 of this document: 1. Divide the shield into three or four parts. In each part you will symbolically depict one of the following: 1. Your greatest success 2. What you value most 3. Your highest goal in life 4. Your goal for humankind 5. Your family’s importance/Your position in your family 6. Something else (that is important to you) of your choosing 2. Use a piece of construction paper to display your coat of arms. Neatness, presentation, and creativity count. 3.
